Base map CR 1:200,000 - colour seamless

Raster ZM 200 data are created on the background of geographic database Data200. The data are visualised using cartographic representations in ESRI products. The cartographic mode created in this way is further processed (using different tools and manual editing) until an optimal map design is not reached. The seamless image of the whole state is finally exported in division to ZM 200 map sheets for printing and in raster segments for electronic exploitation. The raster segments of 50x 50 km are by default created in TIFF format with resolution 1 000 dpi (LZW compression, 24 bit). Alternatively the data can be delivered in format GeoTIFF or PDF. Segments are georeferenced in the coordinate system using text files (TFW) for S-JTSK Krovak EN and WGS 84 / UTM zone 33N projections.

Abstract: Raster ZM 200 data are created on the background of geographic database Data200. The data are visualised using cartographic representations in ESRI products. The cartographic mode created in this way is further processed (using different tools and manual editing) until an optimal map design is not reached. The seamless image of the whole state is finally exported in division to ZM 200 map sheets for printing and in raster segments for electronic exploitation. The raster segments of 50x 50 km are by default created in TIFF format with resolution 1 000 dpi (LZW compression, 24 bit). Alternatively the data can be delivered in format GeoTIFF or PDF. Segments are georeferenced in the coordinate system using text files (TFW) for S-JTSK Krovak EN and WGS 84 / UTM zone 33N projections.

Purpose: ZM 200 belongs to medium-scale base maps. These maps have a topographic character: they contain planimetry, altimetry and map lettering. Digital form of the medium-scale base maps is due to the advantage of unified processing for the whole territory of the Czech Republic exploited in geographic information systems, map portals and web application as an overview map.

Other information: EPSG code 5514 S-JTSK / Krovak East North is an equivalent to the existing ESRI code 102067. The projection keeps the mathematic so called "east-north" orientation of coordinate axis where the X axis has positive values eastwards and Y axis northwards. This projection is suitable for exploitation in GIS applications. The projection is related to the Greenwich Prime Meridian (contrary to the EPSG 5221 S-JTSK (Ferro) / Krovak East North where the Prime Meridian is Ferro).
